Advice Please- Two Little Fishies ATLAS3B Aquastik

I used Two Little Fishies ATLAS3B Aquastik to stick 4 frag plugs on my live rock 2 days ago. Since then many of my corals are closing up and generally don't look healthy anymore. My mandarin fish is also acting weird.

Has anyone used this stuff before? Or know if this is related to my unhappy corals? Its does say it is fish and coral safe, just to turn off the skimmer for 36 hours.

I've used this stuff before without negative impact in both of our previous nano tanks (20 and 29 gallons). How much did you use?

I would guess something else was going on (substrate disturbed and released something?) or you used a very large quantity of epoxy.

When you're mounting corals, it's a bit complicated to get a good bond. I usually use a small amount of epoxy putty (like Aquastik) to fit the mounting location, but then reef safe super glue (Ecotech coral glue) on both sides of the epoxy. The epoxy does not have stickiness to make a meaningful bond to rock or frag plugs, however it does create structure and shape to allow a large surface area for bonding.

In general, you shouldn't have to use more than a smidge of epoxy depending on what you're attaching.
